RHINOPLASTY PHILOSOPHY STATEMENT:
Dr. Rizk's philosophy is a natural, balanced rhinoplasty in harmony with the rest of the facial features. This may sometimes mean a dramatically smaller nose if you are starting with a disproportionately large nose, or it may be a very subtle result. Some of Dr. Rizk's results are dramatic, others more subtle. Dr. Rizk also usually repairs the septum and shrinks the turbinates if they are blocking patient's breathing preoperatively. Patients usually breathe better after the procedure and if you look at most of his revision cases on the main website and blog, he actually builds collapsed and pinched areas to improve breathing with grafts. Additionally, he uses cartilage- conserving and grafting to achieve smaller and more proportionate noses in primary and revision rhinoplasty, which actually makes the nose structurally stronger over a person's lifetime. HE REMOVES very LITTLE cartilage, even in very bulbous tips, to achieve this definition. Additionally, his 3-D endoscopic techniques, is not just used to decrease swelling and bruising postoperatively. It also achieves a more precise long-term result. Furthermore, by decreasing swelling, you also decrease scar tissue formation, which improves overall long-term results.
Dr. Rizk's rhinoplasty approach emphasizes a strong nasal framework and structure to ensure LONGEVITY of an excellent FUNCTIONAL and COSMETIC outcome. Vital to the above philosophy is the use of grafts to support a structurally weak nose or a nose which becomes weak after a reduction. Dr. Rizk prefers to use the patient's own cartilage for grafting, whether from the septum, ears, or costal cartilage rather than foreign implants. Occasionally, if no cartilage is available for grafting, Dr. Rizk will use a synthetic implant. Dr. Rizk spends a great deal of time sculpting these grafts with a special instrument he pioneered to give the most natural and soft result. These supportive cartilage grafts prevent scar contracture over the nose's lifetime and diminishes the need for revision rhinoplasty.
FACELIFT/NECKLIFT PHILOSOPHY STATEMENT:
Dr. Rizk's philosophy is a customized facelift and necklift with jawline and cheek definition. Dr. Rizk does many different types of facelift and necklift surgery and customizes the lift to your face and degree of aging. One lift does not fit all patients and Dr. Rizk does not have a "signature procedure" because each face is different.
Dr. Rizk's philosophy in his lifts is a natural lift which avoids the "pulled" look of older skin lifts. He also does a facelift which not only makes a patient look YOUNGER, but also MORE ATTRACTIVE. This is an important concept because Dr. Rizk's facelifts also reposition volume from the jowls into the cheeks. He lifts in the deeper layers which encompass not only skin and muscle, but ALSO jowl FAT. This repositioning of volume is important because it creates definition, rather than just "tightness" and it looks more natural. The loose muscles in the neck are pulled and tightened behind the ears and also in the middle under the chin from a small incision under the chin.
Dr. Rizk also pioneered the use of 3-Dimentional high definition telescope systems to visualize the face better in the deeper planes, making it a much safer procedure which avoids blood vessels and other structures. With this 3D telescope technology, the scars are smaller and the recuperation is faster because the surgery becomes very precise. Rapid recovery is just as important for Dr. Rizk's New York City Park Avenue practice as is a natural and long-lasting result.

FOX 5 National – Revision Rhinoplasty Plastic Surgery Nightmares
March 5th, 2010
Plastic surgery does not always go the way it should. Unfortunately, very often the outcomes of plastic surgery do not meet the expectations of many patients. With revision rhinoplasty, sometimes a surgical mistake or poor healing can result in a bad outcome requiring revision rhinoplasty.
Dr. Sam Rizk is a double board certified top facial plastic surgeon in New York who does revision rhinoplasty. In one of the cases shown on the FOX National News segment about Plastic Surgery Nightmares, Dr. Rizk helps correct multiple areas of the patient’s nose, damaged by previous plastic surgeries. After the reconstructive operation, the patient’s nose looks straighter, more defined, and has improved breathing capability.

First 3D High Definition Septoplasty/Sinusitis Nasal Evaluation Performed on TV by Dr. Sam Rizk
October 12th, 2009
Featured on the Dr. Oz Show, Dr. Sam Rizk is shown as the first plastic surgeon to ever perform a nasal high definition evaluation for Septoplasty/Sinusitis on National television.

Dr. Rizk Appears on ABC News
September 9th, 2009
Dr. Sam Rizk makes an appearance on ABC News in which he discusses new technology that significantly shortens patients’ recovery time after Rhinoplasty surgery. Superior results are achieved using 3D High Definition Endoscopic tools which allow the surgeon to have an internal view of the nostril during surgery to avoid muscles and blood vessels that commonly cause scars and bruising after surgery. This method allows for a shorter recovery period in which pain and swelling is minimized. Instead of using a drain or packing after surgery, Dr. Sam Rizk uses a dissolving adhesive.
Traditional Rhinoplasty methods require weeks of bruising and pain. One of Dr. Rizk’s patients was able to go on a vacation one week after surgery.

“Demi Moore’s face is smooth and youthful-looking – but with none of the frozen features of other over-Botoxed stars decades younger than her. And while her body looks taut and toned, even top cosmetic surgeons find it difficult to pinpoint exactly what the 46-year-old has had done recently.”
“The secret to Demi’s unlined but naturally plump-looking facial features is, Grazia can reveal, a procedure called the 3D Neck and Facelift, pioneered by New York-based surgeon to the stars, Dr Sam Rizk. The $20,000 operation uses 3D imaging to analyse the face and then microsurgery to scoop out fat from the jowls and reposition it in the cheekbones.”

Plastic Surgery for CEOs and Executives
September 4th, 2009
Dr. Sam Rizk, a board-certified plastic surgeon, said he has seen a rise over the past year of executives, many out of work, traveling to his New York practice for a facial cleanup to improve their chances against tough competition.
The surgical work is not cheap, he said, but for patients such as Mr. Slatkin, it’s an increasingly important investment to set them apart in the business world.
“Some of them have held a job for 25 years, are in their late 40s, early 50s, and have never considered plastic surgery,” he said. “Now they are laid off, the competition is fierce and they find themselves going into the job market with a lot of younger people.
“I think that our society and our country judges us by our appearance, whether we like it or not. But these are men who want to be judged by their resume, very educated people,” he said. “If you give the image that you are tired and have not slept, that image doesn’t do well in an interview and people do make character judgments about the way you look.”
Mr. Slatkin added, “The economy is so bad … and it’s not getting better soon. You need hope. This gives you hope.”

Explaining the issues associated with of medical tourism
July 29th, 2009
An increasingly popular trend has been discussed on CW recently – how more and more Americans choose to fly to other countries in South America and Asia in order to undergo medical procedures, paying much less than they would have if the procedure was done in the U.S. Dr. Rizk explained and was presenting before/after photos, showing how simple procedures can get complicated if not performed by well-trained experienced plastic surgeons.
Dr. Rizk says that even if originally the price seems to be lower, in case of complications and the need of revision surgery, the overall cost can be greater than having a surgery in New York or Los Angeles. Certain surgeries such as facelift and rhinoplasty can change a person’s look significantly, and if the results are not satisfactory, a revision surgery is needed and should be only performed by an experienced surgeon who has been dealing with many similar cases in the past.
